Yamin:
MySQL can do what you need if you have the skills and knowledge to do
the job.
There are several ways to accomplish this, here is what I would
suggest:
- Get an Pentium or AMD K-6 system with a SCSI drive
- Install Linux
- Read tips on basic security to make sure you do not get hacked before
you can take your installation CD out of the drive -:)
- Learn some basics of Unix adminstration
- Install MySQL, and read the manual thoroughly
- Learn some basics of SQL, play areound with tables and queries
- Install PHP, mess with it a little to figure out how it works
- Write a simple database application ( eg, phonebook) with a Web
interface through PHP
- Add a couple of extra features to your simple application
- Start working on you library application
- Get it finished
As you are doing all these things, feel free to ask questions on the
list, but make sure to do your homework before posting a question - make
a decent effort to find the answer yourself first. Make sure to ask
specific questions as you encounter difficulties.
